Predictions and Power Rankings Week 3

Kevin Kousaie

Predictions

 

It’s time for me to decide if I still want to use my crystal ball or not after going 7-10 last week. Either the batteries are dying on my ball or some of you can’t read and didn’t want to help out.

I still managed to beat the coin by 1 game (ed’s note: Hercules! Hercules!) and giving me a 4-game lead. The records sit at 33-32 for me and 29-36 for the coin. I know they aren’t good up to now, but I’m beating the coin (ed’s note: I feel Kevin just brought the coin into this whole thing so that he’d be better than at least random chance).

Now to this week’s many picks.

 

Division 1

 

Outlaws vs Busch Boys  Coin Busch Boys

I needed a few minutes to figure this out, but after looking over the standings I made a few hard picks and had a few easy ones, but I know I can’t make everyone happy. You can’t be 0-3 and asking why my team isn’t ranked. It’s easy, win some games and I’ll start to notice.

 

Final Thoughts

 

I’m super excited to play on a nice grass field this week as it has been so long. Trying to remember when the last time we had games at Rosemount High and Saint Bernadette, has to be a few years. I have been to the new field, and I can tell you that the game speed will be a bit slower than normal, so don’t lead your receivers too much in front they might not get there fast enough.

The one good thing about this week is Jon will be at D’Arcy McGee all day and can explain to everyone trying to use the field that we have a reservation on the field every Saturday.

Now before I let you go, remember that we are playing a game, so go have fun and try not to kill anyone. Oh, and let me remind you again to be on your best behavior. We don’t want complaints and to get kicked out of the park permanently. See you all Saturday.

Word from the Mouth: No Drinking, No Drugs! edition

Kevin Kousaie

Three weeks of the season for Montreal and week one in Brossard are in the books and up to now there have been no issues.

For the first time ever, the MFL will be playing at D’Arcy McGee, and the field is a few minutes drive from Arthur Therrien. I know we're all used to being loud and screaming and yelling and all of that other hoopla, that goes along with playing football, but at this new park we're playing at we will have to respect the area. People live around the park, so that means no yelling, no screaming, no swearing, no smoking, no drinking, no drugs. So all the good stuff can't be done over here. And we'll have to be on our best behavior or else we can lose the park.

I will be heading over there later today to check it out and make sure it will meet our need fully 3 fields preferably 4 if we can.

I can tell you Willy's not going to be happy, he won't be at Le Ber and won’t be able to get his pizza anymore. Some good news, there is a Dairy Queen only a few minutes walk away from the park. No pizza for Willie, but he can have ice cream. I mean what would you rather have in between games, ice cream or pizza?

 

Recap 

 

Division 1

No games were played this week.

 

Division 2

 

Respect vs Pocket Rockets (45-15)

This game was a complete shellacking. Respect got off to a quick start and never look back. Steve had another good day going 22 of 29 for 247 yards and 6 TDs. The story of the game has to be Simon. We all knew Simon could throw the ball, but did anyone really expect to see him go off like he did this week, 6 catches for 139 yards and 3 TDs (20,45,35). Oh, I forgot to mention he also had a pick 6 as well. The biggest issue for Pocket Rockets was the late throws from PO. He had guys open, but he just looked hesitant and not trusting his arm and throwing the ball. The score looks very lopsided and, yes, this game wasn't close, but if you take away the 2 pick 6s that happened and if Pocket Rockets scored on those drives it would have been a game that was decided by converts. I don't think Respect is 30 points better than Pocket Rockets and I expect a much closer game next time they play. 

 

Knights vs KOLB (34-25)

I actually don't remember much about this game. But yeah, Marvin had a big game going off for 101 yards and 2 TDs and Jeremy had 59 yards and a TD. Mike Jaz pulled in seven catches for 31 yards 1 TD and 1 2-point convert on the day, should have been more, except for the few drops that he had. On the KOLB side they were missing a few players and the players they did have this week didn't help Jon out as there were too many drops. I know everyone looks at stats and if the team wins or not, but next time you're at the field and can catch a bit of a KOLB game, you can tell that Jon might be the most talented QBs in the league as he makes every throw look simple and I’m not talking 10-15 yards down field, I'm talking 35 yards rolling left, throwing right, off his back foot on the money every time.

 

Division 3

 

RawSauce vs Bines (19-30)

This is a game that should have been, but the other way around (ed’s note: wat?). Bines was short a quarterback, RawSauce had their team and other than Ludovic being a bit banged up should have been on easy street. Instead, Mathieu decided the 12 for 34, 150 yards and 5 TDs to 1 pick was enough to secure the win. That wasn't the entire story as Mark and his 3 picks was the reason why they won. How does Ludovic not use Yvan on offense at all? The man is their best player and he had no offensive stats. 

 

Division 4

 

Phoenix vs Bouchers (30-22)

Phoenix did enough to keep the victory, but it was closer than it should have been. Felix and Thibault both had good games for Bouchers combining for 20 catches 10 each, 157 yards and 1 TD along with 1 1-point convert. On the Phoenix side Vince had another 2 picks bringing his total to 5 on the season. The combination of Kenny and Gab as rushers this season has been huge and allowed them to stay fresh, each ending the game with 1 sack each. Bouchers biggest struggle in the game was stopping the run. I ran 13 times for 60 yards. I know those aren't considerable numbers, but it's what opened up because of the run, easy throws and to wide open players. Late in the game Bouchers were driving and needed to score and get a 2-point convert, they moved the ball all the way to the 10-yard line before running out of time. 

 

Division 5

 

Slicks vs Slot Machines (19-34)

How does this happen? Going in Slicks were going to get an easy win with Guillaume at QB for them and then Scott taking care of the defense, well Giovanni had other plans. Giovanni threw 3 TDs to 0 picks and was able to spread the ball and keep the defense guessing. The game started with Slot Machines getting the ball and them driving the field and ending with Hugo scoring. On his first pass of the game Guillaume was picked off by Eric who scored to make it 12-0 game and after the successful 2-point convert it was 14-0 Slot Machines. Halfway through the first half Slot Machines had a 20-point lead and at this point it was too much for Slicks to comeback from. The score was 34-13 Slot Machines at half. In the second half Slicks started to get their defense in order and needed the offense to make some plays. They didn’t and even with the shutout in the second half Slicks couldn’t make it a closer game, the offense let them down in this one.

 

Women’s

 

I missed all these games this week. Eventually Ill get to see a Women’s game so I can talk about it.

 

Studs & Duds

 

It’s that time of the week where you get to see if the stat line you put up was enough to make it onto my list. I can tell you that this week I had to make a couple of hard picks, but I figured it out. Now to this week winners and let’s not forget those players that choked.

Predictions

 

It time for me to pull out my crystal ball and tell you who is winning this week. Going into week 3, I hold a 3-game lead over the coin. The season total is 26-22 for me and 23-25 for the coin. In the survivor pool everyone is still holding on to their 10 points. Now to my picks for this week and like always my picks are in bold.

RawSauce vs Bines Coin Bines

 

- They figure it out this week.

 

Red Cats vs Sooners 45 Coin Red Cats

- I’m not sure Red Cats will have the ability to stop Diego from running and getting extra time which is when big plays happen.

 

Tigres vs Super Friends Coin Super Friends

- They are too quick with the ball in their hands and Super Friends won’t be able to keep up.

 

Division 4

Snarf, was Jon ever right about there being so many games to pick from and I hate saying that. We are only 2 weeks in, and it seems like making picks never end. Last week my D4 were really bad so if players in D4 can help out drop a few passes, miss a tackle or twelve that would really help me out. Thanks, and good luck to everyone playing this week.

Final Thoughts

 

Just a reminder this week that we are playing at Arthur Therrien and if you have been there before you know that parking sucks, so get there early and give yourself time, because games will be starting on time since we are all at 1 location this week. We all need to remember that we are renting these fields from the city who can revoke our permits for doing stupid Lion-O stuff at the field, like smoking inside the fenced area, not picking up garbage, or going to the washroom outside. Let’s treat the field as if it were our own backyard, this way we can continue playing at these locations.

I mean we could move everything to Brossard and see how everyone likes that.

Speaking of Brossard, this is week 1 out there and it should be exciting, but it makes for an exceptionally long weekend for me. At least Monday is a holiday.

Before I let you all go, remember that we are playing a game for fun, so go out there, have some fun, and stop yelling at the refs unless you want flags thrown left, right, and center.

Word from the Mouth: A Family Affair! edition

Kevin Kousaie

What a long day Saturday was with 7 time slots of games and most went off with out any issues.

This past week everyone did better with all the garbage, excellent job on that. We did come across another problem and that is players, fans, and let’s say animals in between the fields which made it a mess and didn’t allow the refs and scorekeepers their own space. Moving forward there is to be no one except the refs and scorekeepers in these areas and everyone else needs to be on the other side.

Also, if you want to warm up, do it away from the fields because if your ball ends up on a field your team will start with a penalty.

 

Recap

 

Division 1

 

Master Chiefs vs Busch Boys (42-47)

If you like offense, then this was a game to watch. There was only 1 stop for the defenses, it came when Vinny was driving the field and the pick was by Manu. This game was close and came down to the end with Simon getting the game winner when he hit Nicolas from 5 yards out as time expired. From seeing this game, I can tell you plays were left out on the field from Master Chiefs that would have saved them time during the game which would have left time on the clock at the end.

 

Division 2

 

Pockets Rockets vs Knights (24-21)

Both QBs struggled in this game to rack up completions and both had 18 on the day. I want to know how a team throws 3 picks to 0 and they still win the game. The 3 picks PO threw all went to Jason who was exhausted by the final whistle blow. PO might have found a new favorite target in Devin (7 catches, 75 yards & 3 TDs), now wait until they have chemistry together and those throws are on time and not late. Players screwed the Knights by not showing up this week and forcing them to get a sub last minute. With all the players they were missing, to be on the 8-yard line with 1 play left was remarkable. On the last play Mike looked left then right, threw the ball, but it was out of the hands of the receiver and the game was over just like that.

 

Division 3

 

Bines vs TDs & Beers (19-18)

I’m not going to lie; this game completely blew my mind. All game it felt as if TDs & Beers were in control moving the ball up and down like there was no defense and would they be up by a bunch of points. When I announced the score and time with 3:45 left in the game it hit me along and a few TDs & Beers players that it was this close. After tying it up at 18 both teams had 1 final possession before the game ended. Alexi was only able to gain 1 first down before punting and JF threw a pick after getting the ball past midfield. The game went to OT where Bines won the toss and elected to start on defense. TDs & Beers weren’t able to get their convert in OT. When Bines had their shot with the ball, JF had Thomas run a double move and he got open and scored the winner in OT.

 

Phoenix vs Sooners 45 (34-42)

This game turned out closer than expected considering how Sooners had a 20-point lead at half. On the opening drive on a fourth down Diego was able to buy extra time with what looked like a hand guard (ed’s note: does it taste like salt to anyone else?) to find Sydney for his first of two TDs in the game. Phoenix answered that quickly with a 31-yard TD to JF just out of the reach of the defender. Sooners were able to get 2 turnovers on back-to-back possessions, one on downs and one a beautiful pick by Diego. On the last play of the game, Sooners threw it up from 20 yards out and the defense was in great position, but instead of knocking the ball down or hitting it out of bounds, it ended up in the air and landed in the waiting hands of Sydney for his second TD. Second half rolled around and Phoenix was in a big hole. After slowly chipping away at it play by play, there was 2:23 left in the game and they were down 8 points. It was time for the defense to step up once again for Phoenix and get a stop without giving up a first down. Two plays later Sooners had a first down and that’s how it ended.

 

Division 4

 

Phoenix vs MTL Cessnas (26-6)

This ended up being a family affair, with Mario had his son Milan and Nick was there with me (ed’s note: Nick vehemently denies the allegations of being related to Kevin). There are two things that really sucked about this game. First, it was too early in the season so I couldn’t arrange to make a bet with Mario, and the second thing would be no JS at QB with Luis filling in and it was his first time throwing. I have to give it to Luis, he was able to make a few plays here and there and he didn’t throw any picks which is great for a newbie. Mario was the number 1 target for Luis with 6 catches and their only TD on the last play of the game. As for Phoenix, Brian scored twice, but could have been 3 or 4, but he said he had been eating popcorn on the sideline between plays (ed’s note: does anyone else just occasionally feel like they get a little peek into the madness of Kevin’s mind when he says stuff like this?). This was a fun game to play and its always nice to play against Mario when he is in a good mood.

 

Division 5

 

I didn’t have any games in D5 this week, but hope to get to it in the next few weeks.

 

Women

 

Just like D5 I didn’t have any in the Women’s division this week, but will in the next few weeks.

 

Studs & Duds

 

The season is still early and we haven’t even seen guys in top shape yet, but we have had multiple players scoring 3 and 4 TDs in a week. In the past most of my picks have been pretty simple, but theses first 2 weeks its been tough.

 

Studs

 

Division 1

- Andrew Grant made 7 catches for 141 yards, 2 TDs and made 4 tackles along with 2 picks on defense.

 

Division 2

- Alexandre Vallières 8 catches, 121 yards, 2 TDs 1 2-point convert and 6 tackles 1 pick on defense.

 

Division 3

- Diego Castro Arellano 21 of 26 for 228yards 5 TDs, 3 2-point converts in the air, then 21 yards on 9 runs and 1 TD. and on defense had 5 tackles along with a pick.

 

Division 4

- Anthony Vendrame 3 TDs and 3 picks the rest doesn’t matter.

 

Division 5

- Marcel Jovani 6 catches for 118 yards and 2 TDs, plus 2 tackles and 2 picks on defense.

 

Women

- Roxanne Roy 13 of 21 for 171 yards, 5 TDs, 2 1-point converts. She also ran 2 times for 8 yards made 1 tackle and had 1 pick on defense which she returned for a TD.

 

Duds

 

Division 1

- Josh Levine 3 catches 18 yards. Got to get in that huddle and demand the ball from Jon.

 

Division 2

- Leonidas Aubert 1 catch on offense when you were that guy last season making every play.

 

Division 3

- Oliver Quinn 6 picks and only 8 completions.

 

Division 4

- Brian Mustard for his 3 picks and not dominating like he should be.

 

Division 5

- Antonio Polito threw 5 picks.

 

Women

- Kayla Gauthier 2 catches 7 yards I expected more from you on offense.

 

There you have it my picks for week 2. You don’t need to stress if you haven’t made it up here, yet you still have 9 weeks left.

Predictions

 

After talking it over with the rest of the media team we have decided to do a survivor pick where we all get 10 points, and each wrong pick loses a point, winner has the most points at end of season.

When it comes to the real challenge of me vs the coin, the leader is me after week (ed’s note: you’re beating an inanimate object!). I sit with a 2-game lead at the moment, but its still very early. Records are 13-10 for me and 11-12 for the coin.

Now for this week picks and like always my picks are in bold. I have also decided not to allow coin (ed’s note: the fact that you just call it “coin” and not “the coin” indicates that you’re starting to see it as a sentient thing and you’ve named it. Worrying…) to pick my team’s games so we can have the same number of games played and won’t need to do percentages.

With only 1 week being down my rankings are still very far from perfect and after a few more games being played my rankings will be more precise. If you want to see your team up here, win games and hope for a few losses from other teams.

 

Final Thoughts

 

What do I say before letting you all go for the week. If you were there last week, you know Le Ber is black forest caked, but Arthur Therrien looks good, except one spot where it is collecting water. We aren’t allowed to play there until next week, so that is a problem for next week.

Nothing new and exciting happened this week, except NFL players are stupid 7-layer cake morons. The Chiefs are going to have their top target suspended for the year because of too much free time on his hands.

Last week the Cops popped by and almost gave me a ticket for parking, but I unbuttoned my shirt a bit and talked my way out of it.  

Before you go, remember we are all out there to play a game and have fun, so go out, don’t take it too seriously, have fun, and get some exercise. Thanks for reading and see you Saturday.
